Re: Small project... can't get a Red Wing? make one.
And done. Today was the silver paint, and then the touch-ups.
The biggest pain was the guns, thanks to the weakpoint of the defect. I ended up sanding/filing the handles down a bit, to ensure that once painted they wouldn't be too tight. They are a bit loose now, something that I'll fix with an extra coat of paint or such.
So there it is.. a repaint of Star Scream into a Red Wing.
I can say that the pictures don't do it justice, it's smashing good, the red is a bit metallic, shinier, darker and looks great. Same with the black and silver.
This was done without taking anything off/apart, so it was a steady hand and a bunch of touch-ups. And as this is painted, everything about it is so thight now, so got to be gentle with it.
Hope you enjoy!
